ST Cuthbert’sŠSunday Club and Brownies in Churchtown are preparing for theirŠChristmas Fair this Saturday (November 24).

A special feature of the fair will be a theme of “All Our Yesteryears” and stalls will be decorated to reflect this with stallholders dressed to reflect the eras of bygone days.

Father Christmas arrives at the fair at 10.30am accompanied by some cartoon character guests. He will be in his grotto to meet the children until 12pm and then again at 1pm.Š

The children of the church’s uniformed organisations join at 12pm to perform a selection of carols and Christmas songs.Š

Refreshments and lunches will be served all day and there will be plenty to keep everyone entertained. There will be numerous stalls selling crafts, plants, cakes, Christmas gifts, toys, and much more, plus various games and competitions to enter with great prizes to be won.

At 2pm there will be a magic show by Mr Stix and Peanut the Clown.Š

The fair will be opened by this year’s Rose Queen, Lucy James, at 10.15am and will run until 3.30pm.
